+## Requesting new icons
+
+New icons mostly start as requests by the [Font Awesome community on GitHub](../../issues). Want to request a new icon? Here are some things to keep in mind:
+
+1. Please be nice. Font Awesome is a happy place.
+2. Please do not request comprehensive sets of icons related to a very specific field.
+3. Please [search](../../search?type=Issues) to see if your icon request already exists. If a request is found, please +1 that one.
+4. Please make requests for single icons, unless you are requesting a couple of strictly related icons (e.g., thumbs-up/thumbs-down).
+5. Please and thank you if you include the following:
+ - Title your [new issue](../../issues/new?title=Icon%20Request:%20icon-) `Icon request: icon-name` (e.g., `Icon request: icon-car`).
+ - Include a few use cases for your requested icon. How do you plan on using it?
+ - Attach a single color image or two that represent the idea you're going for.
+ - Request concrete objects: it's harder to make an icon to represent happiness, it's easier to make a smiley face. ☺
+
+
+
+## Suggesting icon keyword addition/removal
+
+Icon filters are maintained by the [Font Awesome community on GitHub](../../pulls?q=is%3Apr+label%3Adoc).
+
+If you feel that an icon
+
+* is missing keyword(s)
+* contains invalid keyword(s)
+
+please send a [PR](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/) to the `master` branch.

## Reporting issues
We only accept issues that are icon requests, bug reports, or feature requests. Bugs must be isolated and reproducible problems that we can fix within the Font Awesome core. Please read the following guidelines to ensure you are the paragon of bug reporting.
